Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 321

She turned the wheelchair to Horace's side, took Horace's arm, and said coquettishly, "I was so bored at home, so I came out for some fresh air. While I was on my way out, I heard that you are here for the auction. I thought it would be good if we walk home together."

Laura deliberately emphasized the word "home", and after saying that, she looked at Clara, "It's you, Clara. To be honest I didn't recognize you just now."

Laura pretended to be very enthusiastic, "When did you come back? Horace and I are going back. Would you like to come and visit our home?"

Clara was surprised when she saw Laura sitting in that wheelchair, and immediately thought of the discussion she heard as she entered the auction hall. Laura's legs seemed to be disabled.

Originally, there was some pity in her heart, but when she heard Laura's words and saw the obvious provocation in her eyes when she looked at her, Clara sneered at her heart.

She was saying that to show off. It seemed that she was not changed at all, a calculating person full of tricks. But looking at Laura's legs covered with a blanket, Clara had so many doubts. She wondered whether Laura was really disabled or not because according to her understanding of this woman, she would do anything to get what she wanted.

But it had nothing to do with her. What difference did it make? She found someone who was willing to believe her.

Clara didn't want to stand here any longer to watch them. She ignored Laura, turned around, and walked backstage.

Did Laura think that her words could still hurt her as they did before? They did because she was still in love with Horace at that time. But now all she wanted was to be away from him.

"Clara, please stay! I can explain all of this…"Horace wanted to follow her and talk to her, but Laura would not let him go.

"Horace! Where are you going? You are divorced from her!"

Clara walked away. He pushed away her hand and said with anger, "What do you want to do! What did you mean?"

He knew the next time he met Clara would definitely be not as easy as today. He was so depressed because he was not sure when either. He wanted to ask her so many things, but it seemed that today was not a good time.

Seeing Horace getting angry with herself, Laura's eyes immediately turned foggy, "Horace, Clara is just your ex-wife. It's all over and done for you two. Don't you forget that I'm your girlfriend now! how can you leave me behind? Besides, there's nothing wrong with what I said. I was just being friendly, but apparently, she was not."

Hearing that, Horace looked suspiciously at Laura. when did he agree to be with her? When did he say she was his girlfriend?

Without seeing Horace's expression, Laura took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears.

"She looked so beautiful now, didn't she? But look at me and my legs… I can understand if you want to abandon me for her. but please remember it was her who left you in the first place. She does not love you anymore, Horace! But I do. "

"Horace, I do love you and can care for you. We both know why my legs were disabled… I never blame you for that. All I ask of you is to stay with me…"

Laura was still talking about her grievances and her love for Horace, but she was interrupted by Horace, "Laura, I think you have misunderstood me."

Laura was a little stunned when she heard Horace saying that he was misunderstood. She said, "What do you mean?"

Taking a deep breath, Horace thought of the doctor's suggestions and hesitated a little, but he couldn't let Laura misunderstand him like this anymore.

Horace bent over, looked into Laura's eyes seriously, and said, "Laura, I know this was because of me. I'll be responsible for you and take good care of you. But—"

Horace increased his tone.

"But you're not my girlfriend, and my love for you is not the kind of love of a man for a woman."

"It's impossible!" Laura shouted excitedly after hearing Horace's words, and then grabbed Horace's hand, "Horace, have you forgotten? You promised me five years ago that you would stay with me for the rest of your life. You can't break your promise!"

"Five years ago, I did promise to accompany you and take care of you, but I never promised you that kind of relationship. Laura, what we had as a couple was too long ago. We were kids at that time. I have moved on, and you should, too." Horace patiently persuaded Laura out of this madness. He wanted to get his hand back, but Laura's grip was too tight.

"You are a liar!" Laura cried sternly, "I don't believe it! What about these five years? We had so much together in these years. You take care of me and you brought me anything I wanted. Now you told me there is nothing between us?"

"I take care of you because your legs. It was my fault. I am really very sorry, Laura. I want you to have a good life, but with someone else. I cannot be with you, because I don't have that kind of feelings for you!"

After hearing Horace's words, Laura realized that Horace had always kept his distance. and had never touched her body. She always thought that Horace took care of her because of love, but today she knew the truth.

Horace continued, "Laura, a man and a woman are together because of love and passion. You should find a guy who is with you out of love, not out of guilt."

"I don't care!" Realizing the fact that Horace was not in love with her, Laura panicked and held Horace's hand tightly, with a pleading expression on her face, she said, "I don't care if it's out of love or guilt! I just want you, and you alone! I have lost my legs, but I'll die if I lost you!"

"Laura, listen to me..."

"I don't want to listen!" Laura shouted with madness, "Horace, you can't leave me! Don't leave me! I don't care if you love me or not! It's enough for me as long as you're by my side! I..."

"Laura!" Horace pulled out his hand, pressed Laura's shoulder with his hands, and yelled at her, "Laura, listen to me!"
